REAR GEARCASE (RZR S INT'L)

General Operation

The RZR S INT'L rear gearcase has three traction
operational modes: AWD,
Differential Unlock. Locking the rear differential is
beneficial in low traction and rough terrain conditions.
Unlocking the rear differential makes maneuvering easier
and minimizes damage to turf and sensitive terrains.
AWD
Differential - Lock
Differential - Unlock
When "Differential-Unlock" is selected on the switch, the
rear differential becomes unlocked for tighter turns. An
electrical solenoid mounted in the rear gearcase housing
actuates the shift yoke. The solenoid plunger extends out
to move the shift yoke and slides the clutch gear away from
the engagement dogs that are attached to the differential
gear assembly. This unlocks the rear differential.
When switch position is set
to "Unlock", the solenoid is
powered and the
plunger extends
to disengage the
clutch gear and
unlock the
differential.

Shift Yoke
Differential - Unlock
When "Differential-Lock" is selected on the switch, power
is removed from the electrical solenoid allowing the
solenoid plunger to retract. Spring tension moves the shift
yoke back into place and engages the clutch gear into the
engagement dogs that are attached to the differential gear
assembly, locking the rear differential as a solid rear axle.
When switch position is set
to "Lock", power is removed
from the solenoid and spring
tension retracts the
plunger to engage
the clutch gear
and lock the
differential.
